The Cambria freeman. (Ebensburg, Pa.) 1867-1938: July 25, 1867
Wilson Myers, who was a resident of Summerhill, met with a terrible death on Friday
last, in the vicinity of that place. It appears he had been standing on one of the
tracks watching a passing freight train, and the noise of the cars prevented him
from hearing the approach of another train from the opposite direction. When
discovered by the engineer it was too late to give the alarm, and he was caught and
mangled in a shocking manner, death ensuing immediately. A delegation of Odd Fellows
went up to Summerhill yesterday, per special train, to attend his funeral.
